And here we go.

So whether you've got your eyes closed or resting with a soft gaze,

Let yourself notice in this moment that you are here being held by the furniture,

The ground.

And as you connect with those places where you're supported,

See your roots going down into the earth.

Let them be heavy as they journey through soil and rock and crystal.

And really feel that support as the bottom of your roots connect down into the very centre of Mother Earth.

And feel that holding.

And as you are present here,

Let your awareness open up to your somatic landscape.

So this is your experience of your own body,

Your felt sense.

So noticing what is alive for you in terms of sensation,

Emotion or even numbness or not knowing.

And very gently noticing what is alive for you at the level of your feet and your legs.

And then at the level of your hips,

Your pelvic ball,

Your genitals,

Your bum.

Your belly,

Lower back.

Your mid back and mid torso,

So ribs and organs and lungs.

And the top of your back,

Shoulder blades and your heart space,

Chest,

Breasts.

And your shoulders and your arms and hands.

And your neck and throat and your head and face.

And noticing what is alive for you,

Allowing your awareness to broaden out now taking in the whole of your somatic landscape again.

And as you're present with your precious body here,

I invite you to welcome in your guides.

So these are guides that are here for you today to make sure that you are held and protected while you let go so that you can trust that any letting go you do,

If there's any walls that are coming down today,

That what will be allowed to come in will be only loving.

So maybe these guides that show up for you to be your kind of bodyguards are guides that you're familiar with,

Maybe spirit animals,

Healthy ancestors.

Or maybe you simply want to put a circle of trees around you.

Whatever feels most supportive and loving for you today,

The beings that you would like to have with you.

Now as you prepare to open to release,

Just know that you only need to let go as much as feels easeful and safe for you today.

So maybe there's a lot to be released or maybe just 1%.

And as you're ready now,

Noting that your roots are still in the earth firmly,

Allowing yourself to ascend upwards,

Like taking a magical flight through,

Past the rooftops and the trees,

Into the sky and into space.

And you can see planets and you can see our earth beneath you and there's a moon there and a particular star and between them is a cosmic hammock that is here just for you and you find yourself in it and being held,

Held,

Held,

Held by this star and this moon and you feel your body supported just exactly as she or he or they need to be right now.

So noticing how it feels to be held and letting yourself give in to this support 10% more.

Like a traveller on a train,

We can put down our bags.

We can relax our grip and trust in the unfolding of things.

Do not worry,

There is a web of life into which you were born from which you can never fall.

So as you're present here in this cosmic hammock,

Really noticing the sensation of being held,

Notice what it is like for you to be the focus of the love of the universe for this incredible force that grew you from nothing.

That your consciousness was totally part of and is now present here partnered with your human form.

What is it like for you to really acknowledge that incredible universe force that is holding you and is so wise and powerful that you can trust it and trust it and trust it some more.

How does that feel?

And as you tune in to this,

I invite you to notice again,

To do a scan of what's alive in your body from roots to tip,

From toes to nose.

And noticing where in your body there is a sense of trying.

So this might show up for you as a sense of tension or a bit of a pushing or even a set of thoughts that are going round and round.

What is here for you?

And now as you're present with any trying in your body,

I invite you to enlist your exhales.

So noticing when your body is breathing out and allowing your exhales to be a little bit longer than your inhales.

So really making sure on each exhale that you've got rid of all the air in your body gently gently.

And as you release,

Releasing any sense of trying at the same time.

Even if you notice your mind returning to thinking,

Gently bringing it back to noticing those exhales and releasing any sense of trying in your body as you do so.

And noticing what you're releasing from your mind,

From your body,

From your life.

What are you ready to release?

Maybe there's particular things that you've been grasping for or worrying about.

Maybe this is purely a somatic and embodied experience where you're allowing a softening,

A softening,

A deep down softening.

Letting your cells be soft.

Letting your arms and your hands be soft.

Letting your heart be soft.

Notice you are letting go into this hammock suspended between the star and the moon.

And now as you're present here with this,

You notice that there's a kind of excited energy that's filtering into the space around you.

If you've got guides with you,

You can hear them or sense them communicating that something magical is coming for you.

And what is coming in now that you've softened is the energy of the universe.

This is the energy of love which is coming in to work magic with you,

To bring you support,

Vision,

Solutions,

And outside the box knowings.

And notice how it feels for you as this tide of the universe enters your energy remit,

Your sphere of energy.

And maybe it's coming in incredibly gently,

Very subtly.

It will only come in as much as you're okay with.

Maybe it's more powerful.

When you partner with this energy,

Which is your birthright,

And you do this by letting go and following your body.

When you partner with this,

This is the space in which everything is possible for you.

You move mountains and access your genius effortlessly.

So as you are beginning to let this energy into your being right now,

Notice what it's bringing.

What is it bringing?

Is it bringing things you need?

Answers?

Is it bringing soothing words telling you why it's absolutely responsible and perfect for you to let go?

And notice as this energy that creates world is dancing with your body's energy.

Notice how that feels.

Notice if it's asking the energy in your body to rearrange in any way.

Whether it's helping you to continue releasing something or something else.

And as you're present with this beautiful energy that creates worlds,

Notice what message it has for you.

How is it inviting you to trust?

Maybe this message is coming with images or knowings in your body,

Or maybe it's coming with words.

Wonderful.

Now it's time to leave your cosmic hammock,

But know that you can come back here anytime you need.

So as you're ready,

Notice what's alive in your body and notice whether you're ready to let this energy that creates worlds leave your human body in this moment to the degree that it's coming today.

Or notice if this feels like there's been an integration and you're ready to keep it or some of it.

So releasing anything that is no longer right for you in this moment and thanking your guides,

Letting them go.

And as you're ready,

Allowing the hammock to dissolve as you drift still held by the air of our incredible world,

As you travel down through the sky,

Past the trees and the house tops to arrive back fully in your space right now,

Noticing the feeling of the ground or the furniture beneath you and simply noticing this message that came through for you from the universe.

What was it?

How are you being guided to trust at this time?

And notice whether you want to write this down.

So if you've got a journal and you would like to write down what arose for you,

This is the moment to do that.

Or if you would rather stay fully with your body,

Present with your somatic landscape and trusting that everything that you need to know will stay with you,

Then do that.

We'll take just a couple of minutes now to let this integrate.

What was the message from the universe that you received?

What did it tell you about how you can trust?

Maybe it was a particular part of your body that was ready to let go of trying.

Maybe there was a very practical message that came through for you.

Being with the breath now,

Letting yourself be heavy.

If you have been writing,

Allowing yourself to release the paper and the pen.

Coming back to the weight of your own body and letting yourself be held as you breathe.

And as you're ready,

If it feels right for you,

Allowing your eyes to reopen to the space.
